Kaleris Software Engineer Intern jobs in Chennai are listed under the title Associate Software Engineer Intern, requisition R-100658. Kaleris is a private equity backed software firm headquartered in Atlanta that builds supply chain execution software for yard management, shipment visibility and asset management across rail, truck and multi mode transport. One honest note first: the Workday page shows this listing as posted 30+ days ago, so confirm it is still accepting applications. We share verified openings on our WhatsApp jobs channel as they appear.
Role Overview
The intern joins the engineering team building the next generation of Kaleris transportation and logistics products. The posting asks for rapid learning and strong communication, and mentions status updates to supervisors in India and the USA, so expect a team that spans time zones.
Responsibilities listed in the posting
- Analyze functional requirements, then design and develop software programs to specification.
- Provide technical support for new and existing product features.
- Design and maintain user interfaces, algorithms, data structures, test cases and test suites for new and older modules.
- Report the status of ongoing development to supervisors in India and the USA.
Requirements
- A bachelor's degree or higher, preferably in Engineering or Computer Science.
- Excellent object oriented programming skills and strong performance related technology knowledge.
- Strong debugging, preferably in Visual Studio and Code Warrior IDEs.
- Ability to identify and automate unit and functional tests with a standard or in house tool.
- Strong analytical and troubleshooting skills, and good written and spoken communication.
- A plus: source control experience (SVN, CVS, VSS or similar), exposure to logistics or container terminals, and experience with real time graphical application development.
What the role involves
The mix of duties is unusual for an internship: design, UI work, algorithms and test suites all appear in one list. You may be asked to touch several parts of a product rather than one narrow task. The mention of Visual Studio and Code Warrior suggests a desktop or embedded flavored codebase, though that is an inference. Logistics domain knowledge is preferred but not required, so you can learn it on the job.
Who it suits
A final year or recent engineering graduate with strong object oriented fundamentals who likes debugging will match best. If you enjoy reading a stack trace more than building flashy screens, the profile fits. It is a poor match if you only know web frameworks and have no grounding in core programming concepts.
How to stand out
These points are expectations, not posted rules:
- Be ready for object oriented design questions: inheritance, polymorphism, interfaces, and when to prefer composition.
- Bring a project where you wrote unit tests and say what they caught.
- Mention any use of Git or another source control system. The posting lists older tools, but the habit carries over.
- Read a little about yard management and container terminals so you can explain why the product exists.
If you are also comparing systems and embedded style roles, see the Cognizant Embedded C Developer opening in Pune and the Sasken Software Test and Release Engineer job in Bengaluru.
